Hleb should have stayed at Arsenal where he was somewhat highly regarded and was considered first team material. He did well there with Flamini (who left for greener pastures and rarely plays as well) and the injury prone Rosicky.
I don't know what happened to him once he came to Barca. I just feel bad for the guy because he's back here and training with the others but it's been put out into the ether that there isn't a place for him on the team. He doesn't want to leave on loan again, so why not keep him around and let him play when needed? If this proves to be another injury filled season for Iniesta (God forbid) surely we could use the help.
